I stand corrected I don't follow soccer either.

Mary Pilon asserts in a Politico piece that the National Women's Soccer League salaries range from $6,000 to $30,000 with a $200,000 cap. The U.S. Men's National Team, in comparison, had a salary cap of $3.1 million last year. The total payout for the (winning!) Women's World Cup will be $15 million compared to the (losing!) men's $576 million.
OK, $6 to 30 grand means semi-pro to me. They can't support themselves on that.
